The Science of Code Reviews

We all make mistakes, as much as we try to write flawless code, every now and then an error slips through. In order to reduce this number we do code reviews to ensure the code meets certain standards and to see if the feature was properly implemented. But how do you do a good code review? How do you handle technical discussions? How do you keep your reviews focused and your discussions relevant? In this talk I would like to show you how you can do proper code reviews, what to look out for when doing them, how to give feedback to the developer and a bunch of other tips to improve this process.

RIck is such a natural speaker, I love his style of speaking. The talk itself was also very good (and I'm not just saying that because of the WeCamp references ;) ) with a good overview of pitfalls and tips and tricks, and of course the ways of selling code reviewing to management. Both entertaining and educating. Well done!

Rick is a great speaker with a good sense of humor and he really believes what he preaches, but it's not to repetitive.
